Nerdle is what Wordle is but for math lovers who have long griped about the lack of numerics in the latter.
Good games need to make the brain work, and the statement has never been truer than the rise of Wordle. A simple word-guessing game at its core, Wordle has shown that there is still a massive market for games that somehow resemble old crossword puzzles.
However, Wordle has been restricted to alphabets only. Perhaps this has been done to keep things feasible for the players.
The game attempts to do what Wordle does, but it creates guessing mathematical results in place of words. There needs to be no fear of hearing the phrase mathematics as the system employs elementary-level operations.
Yet, the game is now quickly being recognized by players all over the planet who are not only math lovers.
At first glance, Nerdle will seem a lot more complex than Wordle since the latter requires guessing a five-letter word, and that's it. Nerdle, on the other hand, may have a lot fewer digits (0 to 9), but there are operators (+ and - and others) and also combinations (2+5 = 8-1). Players will have to guess the correct solution in just six tries, which will seem very hard for many.
But the job becomes a lot simpler because the game follows some basic formats. So, for example, while "5+9" and "9+5" in the world of mathematics are the same, players will have to always guess in with the smaller digits first.
While this may seem puzzling, doing so helps keep things simpler for the player (players can guess the second number by observing the first).
Normal rules of mathematical operations also apply, which is easy to follow. Commonly known as the 'BODMAS' method, the law allows players to see the order of operations to guess their solutions.
